The Junior Land Stewards have begun preparing their future planting plots. Led by their Half Moon Bay high school field guides, they have been removing invasive species, and sheet mulching to prepare their habitat restoration gardens for planting in the spring. They have also taken part in naturalist scavenger hunts where they have been looking for birds of prey, native and invasive plants, signs of the fall season, and places where wildlife might live. Frogs, snakes, hawks and a woodpecker were among the many wild animals observed on these trips. This year the Kings Mountain Elementary school fourth graders have joined the Junior Land Stewards field program, taking active part in these field trips to Wavecrest Open Space - in preparation for their future gardens.
